But urban green spaces also play an underappreciated role in absorbing atmospheric CO2 and in combating global warming, according to a new Columbia study of vegetation in New York City. On a typical summer afternoon, the researchers discovered, the trees, shrubs, flowers, herbs, and grasses in New York’s five boroughs collectively absorb more than 40 percent of the city’s total CO2 emissions.
“That’s a much larger impact than we expected to see,” says atmospheric chemist Róisín Commane, who led the research team at the Columbia Climate School’s Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory.
“We already knew that street trees had this great benefit of cooling and providing shade,” she says. “That they’re also inhaling enormous amounts of CO2 is an added bonus.”
